W.A.R. Podcast Russell Van Brocklen Dyslexia Truth Parents Must Hear About Learning Struggles

Russell Van Brocklen reveals the truth about dyslexia that most schools get wrong. In this powerful W.A.R. Podcast episode, Stryker sits down with the Dyslexia Professor to break down why so many children struggle with reading, why traditional education systems fail dyslexic learners, and how parents can finally help their child build real confidence.

This conversation goes deeper than academics. It exposes the emotional impact of learning struggles, the damage caused by the “wait and see” approach, and the breakthrough power of structured literacy. If your child feels frustrated, overwhelmed, or stuck, this episode gives you clarity, direction, and hope.

Russell explains how dyslexic learners are not broken but wired differently, and how the right strategy can unlock their full potential. Parents will walk away with practical insights, real solutions, and a new understanding of how to support their child’s growth.

Welcome to W.A.R. This is where we talk about the battles people do not see.

Welcome home.

This is W.A.R. We’re All Recovering.

In this powerful episode, we sit down with John Carter, a man who survived a point blank gunshot to the back of his head and was told he would never walk or talk again.

He proved them wrong.

With nine bullet fragments still in his skull, John fought through addiction, depression, prison, and unimaginable loss, becoming the last one standing after losing his brothers and nearly losing himself.

Today, he is the owner of Titanium Health and Fitness, author of Triggered to Change, and a living example of what it means to rebuild your life from nothing.

This is not just a story about survival.

This is about purpose.

In this episode:

- Surviving a gunshot to the head

- Addiction, depression, and prison

- Losing family and becoming the last one standing

- Rebuilding identity through discipline and fitness

- Why there is no perfect time to change

- The mindset that separates survivors from rebuilders

If you are struggling, stuck, or feel like it is too late...

This episode is for you.

There is no perfect time.

There is only right now.

It’s W.A.R.

Each one reach one.

What happens when your life changes in a single second?

At 20 years old, Kenneth Kunken suffered a devastating spinal cord injury while playing football at Cornell University, leaving him nearly paralyzed from the shoulders down.

Most people would have called that the end.

Ken turned it into a beginning.

In this episode of W.A.R. — We’re All Recovering, Ken shares his journey through nine months of hospitals and rehab, returning to Cornell before disability laws existed, being carried up steps just to attend class, and ultimately building a life of purpose.

From engineer to lawyer to Assistant District Attorney for over 40 years, Ken’s story is about resilience, identity, and redefining strength after everything is stripped away.

We talk about the mental war after trauma, the unseen battles of recovery, family, legacy, and what it really means to rebuild when life doesn’t go as planned.

This isn’t motivation.

This is reality.

This is W.A.R.
